Gabi at almost 10 months!

Mommy is amazed at how happy Gabi can be one minute, and then the next, madder than all get out! -see pic. :-) She is STILL happiest in somebody's arms. That somebody almost always being mommy. That is probably why she has yet to crawl (I was walking at her age!!), although mommy thinks she is getting closer to crawling every day. She does like to stand for a long time against a play table. But she doesn't know how to sit down from standing yet. She usually topples over or cries until someone helps her down.
Gabi is now starting to slim down...a little. She has fallen from 97th percentile for height and weight to ONLY 90th. Mommy's not going to start the tube feeding quite yet though. ;)
She is doing pretty well at sleeping and putting herself to sleep- relative to how I was at her age, anyway.
She is understanding some of mommy's sign language (today when mommy signed "drink", she reached for her sippy cup and she looks for Brandie when mommy signs "dog").
She is mimicking us all the time. Mommy's favorite right now is when Gabi is reaching for something she is not supposed to have and mommy says, "Nuh-uh-uh!" Gabi says almost the same thing back.
Mommy also thought Gabi was cute today when she got a hold of a bottle brush and seemed to be combing her hair with it. All in all, I think we are going to keep her.

First of all, I'm jealous of her beautiful hair. Sophie has a mullet right now. Seondly, I understand the happy then ticked thing and the happy in someone's arms. Sounds just like my little miss.
